The Empress of Zhen Huan Reborn

Bao Juan saw the emperor's angry look and quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you have wronged my young master. This handkerchief was promised to my young master by Wen!"

Yixiu turned around and scolded Baojuan, "I'm talking to the Emperor, why do you have to interfere?"

However, when the emperor heard Baojuan mention Wen Da Ying, he was slightly surprised and looked at Su Peisheng.

Su Peisheng took a small step forward and whispered behind the emperor, "Your Majesty, Wen Ying is Guaerjia Wenyuan, the daughter of Master Guaerjia Emin."

The emperor still didn't remember this person, and asked calmly, "Have I met her?"

Su Peisheng thought for a moment and replied carefully, "It was the woman who said that day that Concubine Xi's twins were not your Majesty. She was Wen Ying."

After Su Peisheng's reminder, the emperor also remembered that there seemed to be such a person in the harem. He was busy recently and had not had time to settle accounts with her. Unexpectedly, just after that incident, she was restless and involved in this matter again. The emperor's impression of Guaer Jiawenyuan became worse and worse.

The emperor looked at Baojuan coldly and said, "You said that Wen promised to give this handkerchief to your master? What's going on?"

When Baojuan heard the emperor's question, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, a few days ago, Wen said that he was worried that my young lady would be lonely in the palace, so he often came to chat with my young lady. That day, my young lady saw that Wen's handkerchief was a little strange, so she asked a few more questions, and Wen gave it to my young lady as a gift."

The emperor listened to Baojuan's words and sneered, "The handkerchief was given to your young master by Concubine Wen? Could it be that the things on it were also framed by Concubine Wen for your young master?"

When Yixiu heard the emperor's words, her heart froze. Could it be that the emperor had found out something?

Yixiu's eyes moved as she said softly, "I don't know why there are these things on this handkerchief, and I think Wen Da Ying doesn't know either."

The emperor looked at Yixiu with a sharp gaze, half smiling, and said, "Oh? You really don't know?"

Yixiu's heart tightened, but she still pretended to be calm and replied: "I really don't know. If I really knew about this, how dare I hide it from the emperor."

The emperor snorted coldly, turned to Baojuan and said, "Since Wen Ying gave it to your young master, then you should go and call Wen Ying over and confront him face to face."

Baojuan kowtowed and left in a hurry. Yixiu's face turned ugly, and she was thinking about countermeasures. The emperor sat on the chair, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrest, as if thinking about something.

When Baojuan went out to find Wen Da Ying, Su Peisheng had already given his eyes, signaling his eunuchs to follow Baojuan quietly.

Baojuan was thinking carefully all the way and had no idea that she was being followed.

Soon after, Baojuan came to Wen Ying's bedroom. Wen Ying was dressing up and was surprised to see Baojuan coming.

"Baojuan, why are you here?"

Baojuan took a deep breath and handed the handkerchief to Guaer Jiawenyuan, "This is the handkerchief you gave to my young master. Now the emperor wants to summon you and confront you face to face."

Guaerjia Wenyuan took the handkerchief and her face turned pale instantly, "This... I..."

She was obviously a little panicked. She didn't know why the emperor knew about this, and she didn't understand why Yixiu gave her away.

Just then, Su Peisheng's men walked into the room with several guards.

"Wen agreed to come with us." Su Peisheng's men said coldly.

Guaerjia Wenyuan looked at Baojuan helplessly, then followed Su Peisheng out of the bedroom.

The moment Baojuan saw the guards come in, her heart began to beat fast. It was a close call. Fortunately, she didn't say anything else, otherwise she would have been caught red-handed.

When Guaerjia Wenyuan arrived at Qianxi Palace, she saw the emperor sitting on the throne with a gloomy face, and Yixiu was kneeling on the ground. Guaerjia Wenyuan saw the cold atmosphere in the palace and was a little overwhelmed for a moment. She knelt on the ground and said, "I promised Wenshi to see the emperor and Concubine Yi."

The emperor looked at Guaer Jia Wenyuan, his face expressing an expression that was difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry, and he did not ask Guaer Jia Wenyuan to stand up.

Guaer Jia Wenyuan looked at the emperor's expression and asked tentatively, "I wonder why the emperor sent me here?"

When the emperor heard what Guaer Jia Wenyuan said, he was so angry that he laughed. He looked at Guaer Jia Wenyuan with a sharp look in his eyes and said, "Why did I look for you? Didn't Baojuan tell you just now?"

When Baojuan heard the emperor's words, she immediately knelt down and replied, "Your Majesty, I have already agreed to this with Tongwen."

After hearing Baojuan's words, the emperor looked at Guaerjia Wenyuan meaningfully, and said with a tone of majesty that only belonged to an emperor: "Since Baojuan has already said so, does Wenyuan want to pretend to be confused to the end?"

When Guaer Jia Wenyuan heard the emperor's question, she shook her head and said, "I dare not answer your question, but I don't know why your majesty is angry about that handkerchief? That handkerchief was indeed given to Concubine Yi by me."

The emperor was too lazy to waste words listening to Guaerjia Wenyuan's words. He glanced at Su Peisheng, who understood and said quickly: "Wen agreed. The emperor sent the imperial physician to test the handkerchief and found snake venom."

When Guaerjia Wenyuan and Ulanara Yixiu heard Su Peisheng's words, their faces changed.

Guaer Jia Wenyuan was full of surprise. She looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, how could it be? The imperial physician must have made a mistake. When I gave it to Concubine Yi, the handkerchief was fine. How could it contain snake venom?"

Yixiu was also shocked at this moment. She could never have imagined that there would be snake venom on the handkerchief. Could it be that someone else's spy appeared in her Qianxi Palace?

The emperor carefully looked at the expressions on Yixiu and Guaer Jiawenyuan's faces and felt that Yixiu's expression was a little strange, as if there were some other unknown secrets.

The emperor was silent for a moment, then said, "I didn't want to pursue the matter, but this matter concerns the reputation of the two concubines, so I have to investigate. Come, check the Qianxi Palace thoroughly, especially the bedrooms of Yixiu and Wenyuan."

After receiving the order, the guards immediately took action.

Guaerjia, Wenyuan and Yixiu were all very nervous. They didn't know what news the emperor had heard that made him want to investigate them.

Not long after, a guard presented a small porcelain bottle. The emperor picked up the bottle, opened the lid, and a pungent smell filled the air.

"This was found in Wen Yuan's bedroom." The guard replied in a low voice.

"Wen Da Ying, you can't deny this." The emperor's voice was as cold as ice.

Guaer Jia Wenyuan's eyes widened, "This... this is not mine! Your Majesty, I have never seen anything like this!"

Yixiu remained silent, she already had some guesses in her mind.
